A delightful twist on classic pork chops, featuring a tangy citrus glaze with a hint of spice.
In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh orange juice, Cajun seasoning, minced garlic, and chopped green onions to create the marinade.
Use freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavor.
Place the pork chops in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for 15 minutes.
Marinating for longer can enhance the flavor, but 15 minutes works well for a quick meal.
Preheat your grill or broiler to medium heat.
Ensure the grill or broiler is hot before placing the meat to achieve a good sear.
Place the marinated pork chops on the grill or under the broiler. Cook for 7-10 minutes on each side, basting with the marinade as they cook.
Avoid overcooking to keep the pork chops juicy and tender.
Serve the pork chops hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions if desired.
Pair with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
